Alan Shalloway, president of NetObjectives and co-author of “Design Patterns Explained” talks to us about Lean Softweare Development, Software Design Patterns, and the evolving discussion around Agile.
This was a great discussion at the Agile 2008 conference in Toronto.
Mark Miller, bad boy of .Net, Millinater of Mondays, and Chief Architect for DevExpress, C# MVP, and living legend joined us here on the Elegant Code Cast.
Do I even need to tell you about the show?
This one has it all. And you know what? Besides being stuffed with gray matter, Mark is just a nice guy.
Richard Hundhausen is President of Accentient, a training and consulting company specializing in MS Team System. Additionally, Rich is a published author, a MS MVP in Team System, and a Microsoft Regional Director. In other words, wow. This guy knows Team System and the industry.
Richard has a very popular talk that he has done at several conferences entitled, Team System Worst Practices. This year at Tech Ed Developer, Rich was good enough to let me plug my recorder right into his sound board while giving this talk, and that is the majority of this cast.
Additionally, Rich sat down with me to talk a bit about Team System and the landscape in front of us with project Rosario, the next version of Team System.
This combines to make the longest Elegant Code Cast we have ever produced at 1 hour, 25 minutes. It is not my goal to regularly produce shows this long, but this was a great opportunity to learn a lot from a very knowledgeable guy.
Enjoy this over the course of 3 runs, or 2 commutes :).
Ward Bell, VP of Product Management for IdeaBlade, talked to me at TechEd about DevForce, his company’s ORM product for .Net developers. It didn’t stop there. Ward dropped knowledge on several other things including:
and of course, qualities of Elegant Code.
This week’s Code Cast is a discussion with Jarod Ferguson, an Elegant Coder who takes us through several topics including:
and plenty more.
In this episode of the Elegant Code Cast, we talk with Mike Moore of the RubyVerse podcast and Darrel Carver, our last guest. Mike listened to Darrel’s interview and had some views of his own on the state of software development.
This discussion focuses primarily on the familiar question of programming as an art or a science, but touches on some of the promising technologies leading us into the next level of our craft. I hope you enjoy the discussion.
This podcast was recorded with Skype.
In this Code Cast, we meet Darrel Carver, a 30 year veteran of the software industry, an accomplished software architect, and an Elegant Coder.Darrel gives us a little historical perspective on our craft as we explore things like minimalism, the role of the architect, and Model Driven Architectures. This is a great talk.
This week’s Elegant Code Cast is an interview with Matt Milner of PluralSight.
Matt is an amazing presenter and fount of knowledge on WCF, WF, and BizTalk. He drops some great knowledge on these subjects and enterprise SOA, along with some discussion of Oslo, Microsoft’s new Model Driven initiative.
Today’s interview with an Elegant Coder is with Scott Nichols, a solution architect with many years experience in very large IT organizations. Scott shares his wisdom on several subjects including:
In this episode of the Elegant Code Cast, we visit with Elegant Coder Chris Brandsma. Chris is a senior developer at Mobile Data Force in Boise, Idaho. Chris provides some great details on subjects ranging from AJAX and RIA separation of concerns to LINQ and Lambda expressions.
He also gives us a glimpse of what it is like to live your life visiting other people’s development shops. Did you know source control is stil optional in some organizations?
Chris is a true code craftsman and this shows in his clear explanations of some very advanced programming concepts. If you haven’t played with Lambda expressions, anonymous delegates, or LINQ, start with this podcast.
